<p class="bodytext">All connections to the Web server and requests for files that were not found on the server are registered in log files. These log files are analyzed by the statistical utilities running on the server, which then present graphical reports on demand. You may want to download these log files to your computer for processing by third-party statistical utilities, or view their contents for web server debugging purposes.</p>
<p class="bodytext">To prevent these log files from growing too large, you should enable automatic cleanup and recycling of log files.</p>
